Description

This Lemon Blueberry Muffin Chia Pudding is a delicious blend of creamy yogurt, fresh blueberries, and crunchy oats. Its irresistible flavor and easy preparation make it a perfect dessert or breakfast option for anyone craving something healthy and homemade.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened plant-based yogurt
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries, thawed
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup or blueberry jam
  • 3 tbsp gluten-free rolled oats
  • 2 tbsp toasted pecans
  • Zest of 1/2 a lemon
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 1/3 cup chia seeds
  • 3 tbsp gluten-free rolled oats
  • 1/2 tbsp vegan butter (optional)
  • 3 tbsp toasted pecans
  • 2 medjool dates
  • Zest of 1/2 a lemon

Instructions

  1. If desired, toast the pecans in a skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until fragrant.
  2. Blend together yogurt, blueberries, maple syrup, rolled oats, pecans, lemon zest, vanilla, salt, and milk until smooth. Adjust flavor to taste.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a container, stir in chia seeds, and let sit for 10 minutes before stirring again. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  4. For the crumble, toast the oats in the same skillet for about 8 minutes. Add butter for extra flavor if desired, then cool.
  5. Pulse pecans and medjool dates in a food processor until crumbly. Add toasted oats, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt to combine.
  6. Layer crumble and chia pudding in cups or bowls as desired.

Notes

Toasting the pecans enhances their flavor, but it can be skipped if time is short.
Make the pudding a day ahead for a quick grab-and-go breakfast.
Experiment with different plant-based yogurts for varied flavors.
